2. The proportion, of the wind's energy that can be obtained from a windmill is given byE(x) = 4x – 8x² +4x, where x is the proportion by which wind is slowed as it passes throughthe windmill. Find the proportion x that maximized the proportion of the wind's energyfunction on the interval [0,1]. (Give exact answers in the lowest terms)Ans.

A soda can has a volume of 25 cubic inches. Let x denote its radius and h its height, both in inches. a. Using the fact that the volume of the can is 25 cubic inches, express h in terms of x. b. Express the total surface area S of the can in terms of x.
Now lets use a graphing calculator to get a graph of C=59(F32). By letting F=x and C=y, we obtain Figure 7.15. Pay special attention to the boundaries on x. These values were chosen so that the fraction (Maximumvalueofx)minus(Minimumvalueofx)95 Would be equal to 1. The viewing window of the graphing calculator used to produce Figure 7.15 is 95 pixels dots wide. Therefore, we use 95 as the denominator of the fraction. We chose the boundaries for y to make sure that the cursor would be visible on the screen when we looked for certain values. This was accomplished by setting the aforementioned fraction equal to 1 By moving the cursor to each of the F values, we can complete the table as follows. F 5 5 9 11 12 20 30 45 60 C 21 15 13 12 11 7 1 7 16 The C values are expressed to the nearest degree. Use your calculator and check the values in the table by using the equation C=59(F32).
